This is a 7* SUPER-BLOWOUT on the Chicago Cubs.
Sometimes a favorite is a favorite for a reason and in this case, we feel that Kyle Hendricks and the defending champion Cubbies could/should easily be much largers ones in this particular matchup.
Michael Wacha: He's 2-3 with a 3.99 ERA. Most recently Wacha gave up four runs off five hits and three walks over just three innings in a loss to LA on Tuesday. Wacha has regressed as the season has progressed, as he's now allowed nine earned runs over seven innings spanning two starts.
Hendricks: He's 4-3 with a 3.75 ERA. Hendricks most recently allowed five runs while walking none and striking out five over five innings in a 5-2 loss to the Padres on Monday. The majority of the damage came off a grand slame by Hunter Renfroe. Let's not focus too long on one bad outing though, previous to that dud Hendricks had allowed two runs or fewer in six straight starts.
The bottom line: Note that Wacha is 0-2 with a 6.19 ERA on the road, while Hendricks is 2-1 with a 3.49 ERA at home. Also note that St. Louis is just 16-19 (-5.6 units) in all night games this year, while Chicago is 2-1 in its last three following a victory. Play on the CUBS.
